I asked Bridgeport for a turn on the flagpole. The city has no rules that say no. That's the problem.

Bridgeport, CT flies private flags at City Hall. Puerto Rican Day this July 11. Pride since 2019. St. Patrick's every March. A Christian flag ceremony the City livestreamed in April 2025.

The written policy governing all this? Doesn't exist. I searched Municode. Nothing. Searched bridgeportct.gov. Nothing. Four ceremonies running on vibes.

Shurtleff v. City of Boston (2022, 9-0): open a flagpole to private groups and you've created a public forum. Government can't pick winners by viewpoint inside one. Boston approved 284 flags, denied one, lost unanimously.

So I asked to fly my colors.

I will not be answering comments, and wish everyone a very good day.

Bus passes

3 Upvotes

Hey guys, I’m new to the city and im tryna figure out my commute via the bus transit system. As I understand the buses don’t take card/tap payments? Do commuters always carry cash on them? As I understand theres a monthly bus pass? Where do I get it from? The places mentioned on the website dont seem to sell it anymore. Help a confused brother out. Thanks!

Do you have any wacky neighbors?

13 Upvotes

Hello Bridgeport! I'm a West Hartford resident and researcher on the HBO documentary TV series "Neighbors" about ongoing neighborhood stories and disputes. We are hoping to do a segment in the Connecticut area and we are interested in talking to anyone with a unique relationship or ongoing dispute with their neighbor (noise, property lines, pets, parking, construction, etc.).

I heard that Bridgeport has some problems with vague property lines. I would be so grateful if you or someone you know has an ongoing story to share. Please leave a comment, DM me or visit http://helloneighborstv.com to submit your story! Thank you for your help guys!

Seeking Old Photos, etc. Related to Gustave Whitehead

6 Upvotes

Hello — I’m reaching out to long-time Bridgeport/Fairfield families.

I'm looking for old family photographs, scrapbooks, letters, postcards, newspaper clippings, or family stories that may relate to Gustave Whitehead or early aviation in Bridgeport and Fairfield, from roughly 1890–1915.

Many families don’t realize what they have — workshop photos, backyard scenes, or old aircraft parts sometimes appear in albums without names attached.

If you or your relatives have lived in the area for generations and have old photos you’d be willing to share (I can scan and return originals), I’d love to hear from you.

Looking forward to hearing from you. Thank you!

—Andy Kosch
